The Japanese Hassunme Cross-Cut Saw is a light weight and efficient Japanese pull saw with a thin blade designed to cut across the grain, made by Zetsaw.

Produces a superb end-grain finish and a very thin kerf (saw cut).

The cutting action on this blade is on the draw-stroke cutting as the user pulls, totally the opposite to a traditional western saw. Once familiar with the pull-only draw-stroke action they are remarkable.

The teeth on this blade can be somewhat delicate so always store in a protective sheath, or at least in the cardboard sheath provided when not being used. Will keep its sharpness for a long time if used in clean wood and stored carefully.

18 TPI (teeth per inch). Blade 0.5mm thick and 250mm (10") long or a slightly longer variant at 265mm (please note the longer blade may come separated from the handle for shipping reasons - its easy to pop it right back on!)

The handle of the Japanese Hassunme Cross-Cut Saw will also accept the Hassunme RIPPING BLADE.

Replacement cross-cut and ripping blades available which are straight forward to refit.
